Ding Yue didn’t speak, but silently anticipated the upcoming performance.
After the cody skit "Celebrity for Likes?" ended, the host took the stage and began introducing the next act.
"Next up, please look forward to a performance titled ’chanical Enhancent,’ created by the chanical engineering students and faculty!"
After the host finished speaking, he exited the stage.
Then, the stage lights began to flash, followed by chanical-like special effects appearing on the large screen.
The heavy industrial feel of the chanical effects conveyed an overwhelming sense of urgency, accompanied by grand sound effects, imrsing the atmosphere from the previous codic skit into a world of industrial chanics.
Students from the chanical engineering departnt gradually took the stage, followed by various props that also exuded a strong chanical industrial feel. After the props were assembled, the chanical engineering students, with the accompanint of special effects and music, began their performance of this craft art.
Yes!
The act "chanical Enhancent" was, in fact, a type of craft art performance, but not ordinary craft art—it was chanical craft art.
Under the hands-on operation of the students from the chanical engineering departnt at Mist City Arts and Science University, the massive chanical parts began to be assembled!
"Damn! This is so hardcore!"
"What are they doing?"
"This looks so energetic."
"I just love the clanking sound of machinery; it’s absolutely thrilling."
"Are they assembling sothing?"
"The na of the showcase, ’chanical Enhancent,’ sounds incredible!"
Both the student audience at the venue and viewers online were captivated by the na of the performance. After all, "chanical Enhancent" did sound very impressive.
On closer look, the act was a group of students thodically assembling sothing, coordinated with heavy industrial chanical effects and music on the backdrop screen, making even the assembly srizing.
"Yue, what are they assembling?" Huang Youjie asked Ding Yue, bewildered by the showcase titled "chanical Enhancent."
"It’s still hard to tell."
Ding Yue shook his head.
Because although he had seen the rehearsal beforehand, he had not witnessed the chanical engineering departnt’s "chanical Enhancent" act during the rehearsal, so he was unsure what exactly this group of chanical engineering students would construct.
Gradually,
As the performance progressed, what they were assembling began to take shape.
"Is that a chanical suit?"
"Damn, it’s starting to take shape, and it looks powerful!"
"What is that?"
"It looks like a chanical suit."
"Wow, it’s quite large; how did they make it?"
"Look, the material seems tallic. Considering how large these tallic parts are to make such a big chanical suit, it must be very heavy."
"Seriously, a handcrafted chanical suit?"
"In? Hand-crafted chanical suit?"
"That hand-crafted chanical suit is hilarious, it looks like it really is hand-crafted!"
"It must be so light tallic material, right?"
"Maybe it’s not even tal, looks more like tin foil."
"Yeah, right, like tin foil?"
Eventually, the online audience as well noticed what was being assembled in the act—it was clearly a chanical suit.
As expected,
When more parts were put together, a humanoid chanical suit dramatically appeared at the center of the stage.
Therefore, the performance was dubbed by the audience as "Handcrafted chanical Suit!"
Of course, the suit wasn’t a real chanical suit but made from special materials, with pre-fabricated parts that were then assembled by the chanical engineering students.
Even though that was the case, it would probably still be challenging for most people to successfully assemble, only achievable by these students familiar with chanical technology.
The ch suit was about two ters tall and stood at the center of the stage, looking extrely cool.
Many students had already taken out their phones and started snapping photos incessantly.
Because under the lighting effects, this sowhat simplified ch suit model still had a sci-fi movie aura about it.
As soon as the "ch suit" was assembled, music began to play.
The audience was all too familiar with this tune, as it had just gone trending a week ago.
That’s right!
It was the the song of "Pacific Rim"!
The BGM, paired with the ch suit on the stage, instantly fired up both the stage and the entire show!
"Activate!"
A robust voice echoed from the stage.
The next second, the "ch suit" standing on the stage began to slowly rise, its feet emitting faint blue flas.
"Is it flying?"
Ding Yue watched in astonishnt.
It was incredible that the ch suit, although just a model, was flying; did they install a propulsion engine in the model?
Such a costly undertaking?
But Ding Yue quickly realized he might be overthinking it.
Seeing how the ch suit slowly ascended, it didn’t seem to be driven by propulsion. On closer inspection of the faint blue flas at the feet of the ch model, good heavens, it wasn’t fla from an engine but rely a lighting effect.
"I knew it."
Ding Yue murmured to himself.
"How is it flying up?"
"Didn’t you see? There, yes, right there."
"Ah, so it’s hoisted by wires."
Huang Youjie and Xu Bin started to converse.
Ding Yue saw it too. As Huang Youjie and Xu Bin were discussing, the ch suit model was indeed hoisted up by wires.
And the faint blue flas at the feet were indeed lighting effects, not real flas.
However, the stage effect was still quite impressive.
From the assembly of the "ch suit" to its slow ascent, coupled with the BGM of "Pacific Rim," the show was taken to new heights.
This program, unsurprisingly due to its novelty and creativity, as well as the quality-looking "ch suit" model and the topic of "handmade ch," successfully reached the trending topics on Twitter.
Quickly, as netizens spread the word, "handmade ch" beca the hottest phrase of the evening, even turning into a popular .
Just before this program, "chanical Enhancent," the skit "Celebrity or Not?" was considered the best of the New Year’s Eve Gala at Mist City Arts and Science University by netizens.
Once "handmade ch" appeared, "chanical Enhancent" unquestionably beca the new highlight of the show, propelling the New Year’s Eve Gala to a new peak in viewership.
"Principal Ding, the number of online viewers in our Twitter, TikTok, and our own Feiyue Streaming dia Platform’s livestream has already exceeded five million," Secretary Wen Ruohan reported happily to Principal Ding.
Initially, Mist City Arts and Science University planned to use only the Feiyue Streaming dia Platform for the official livestream.
However, after considering the platform’s insufficient traffic, Ding Yue realized the New Year’s Eve Gala was a great opportunity to attract and redirect viewers.
Thus, Mist City Arts and Science University opened official livestreams on both Twitter and TikTok – the combined online audience across the three platforms had now surpassed five million, a trendous number for a livestream.
After the "chanical Enhancent" program concluded, a very familiar lody resonated from the stage.
Ding Yue recognized this lody instantly; it stirred his very DNA.
Indeed.
It was Lin Zhirou’s song "et." It had been a while since Ding Yue last heard this song, and today he could experience it live.
He wondered just how much Lin Zhirou’s singing had improved over these two years.
